[PAID] Raid Studio: Retro Bundle

Thanks again for the praise.

About the scheduling: I can't switch characters from within a plugin, because logging from one character to the next requires a restart of Honorbuddy. But all my profiles are already compatible with HBRelog right now. What I want to implement is a tool that lets you schedule raids for one character and then fires off a call to HBRelog telling it to switch to the next character. If that one has then a raid schedule setup, you can run it too. I'll give you more information on that within the next few days. I have some time today to take a pass at it and will keep you updated in here and in the Studio Companion thread.

 

Brill - that's pretty much exactly what I was after

 

Ulduar would be amazeballs just because the instance takes so god damn long to clear

 

Ulduar has some unique challenges to it. Especially Yogg-Saron is a b**** when it comes to designing that encounter for a melee. It is hard to kill all mobs after you teleported (because of the constant fear/stun). I am trying to make this encounter bulletproof right now. The other issue is Mimiron for melees. I had to come up with a few very special mechanics to get it to work reliably. Right now I pushed the "task planner" ahead of schedule, because it is requested by so many people and I expect that feature to enter internal testing today. Tomorrow I will then get back to work on Ulduar. But that raid will need some time in testing as well.

My major issue currently is the lack of the level 100 characters. The ban wave stripped me of my best developing accounts and right now I don't have all classes/specs available to test things with. I am leveling new toons, but I have changed my botting tactic a bit to not be so obvious and I can't affort to pay 500 bucks to boost 10 characters to level 90. That's just not possible with how little money the store brings in these days.

 

eeek, can't wait!!

 

I just updated the Studio Companion thread with a preview of the Studio Planner feature. I will now prepare it for my beta testers to try out.

 

Hi Studio,
Your work is just amazing, you click, it works.
I just tried your 3 days trial of the big bundle and i think i will wait until you finish Ulduar etc for buy it.
Actually i love to run the Mount Farmer Profile from the Buddy store but it is a little buged some times and it seems that the author is no longer developing it so..
I would really love to use your work instead, for the mount runs such as ulduar (Mimiron's head), Malygos, Firelands etc.. ^^
Would love also to have a special button on your companion plugin for chain raids with a same character (without HB)
You make a clean and good job thank you, will wait for the next releases !

Sorry for the bad english..

 

So i added Studio 60 to my GOD AMONG MEN list. had a small collection of your previous raids. Now i have this i love you. If you tell me you are a woman we are going to dinner.

 

Yeah ... I don't know what's going on with Zakanator. He has basically gone missing since the ban wave. There are store rules that require store products to be frozen if the author doesn't support them enough, but apparently his customers don't make enough noise at this time for Bossland to realize the issue. If I were to point it out, it would look like I am trying to bury my competition, but at this time from what I read on the forums I'm just sad for anyone that buys a very buggy product.

But thank you for your kind words. I said it a few times before, I do have plans for Cataclysm raids, but I am spread a bit thin in regards to resources. Let me finish up Ulduar/ToC/EoT/VoA first, then we'll talk.

I also expect Trial of the Crusader to be released (and added to this bundle) over the weekend or sometime next week. I feel ToC is pretty stable right now with a few nifty features that even get rid of Blizzard bugs.

The button you are waiting for is currently part of the beta my eager testers are checking out right now. So far it looks good and I think you'll also get that within the next few days.

 

I have to disappoint. I am indeed male and quite happy with that situation so no changes to expect. We could still go out and eat something. Men like food!

 

Take the time you need, thank you !

 

I've contacted Bossland about this.
Let's hope they can get that profile off the storepage so people don't waste their money on it anymore.

 

i love the product idea man; just what I was looking for. Zakanator has and always will be a rat. He did the same thing to me a long time ago when he was selling his "web based auction house" product that never materialized. He's a rat and I have no clue why he's still allowed to sell things on the forum given his atrocious track record and habit of disappearing when he has to answer for his actions.

 

I didn't mean to stir up a discussion. I get your emotion and without having ever owned any of his products and I only assume you are in the right from what I read on the forums. Nevertheless, there are always two sides to these things.

And please let's keep this forum thread about the Retro Bundle of which I hope you will never have to say such harsh things.

 

did u add the load up multi clears option yet? if so I am ready to buy

 

I expect this feature to be submitted to the store today or tomorrow. I don't know how long approval will take though.

 

Have two question , are you adding MOP raids ? And any chance of adding ONE BUTTON run all ? And please add a loot boss only option. If all those yes = instant buy.

 

The bundle is designed for Classic, Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King raids. I will design other raids, but those will not be part of this bundle. I have solid plans for Cataclysm raids, but Mists of Pandaria raids are (almost) impossible for bots to solo these days, because the hidden buff boosting players is not active in MoP content. When Legion is released this will change and I will take a look at the MoP raids.

The "One Button Run All" feature will be submitted tomorrow. I can't say how long approval then takes. That is out of my hands.

A "loot boss only" option is something that is a bit harder to implement. Up until now only one other person requested this. If this is something that more than two people want, I can implement something like it. You will still get the occasional trash loot though if boss and trash die next to each other due to AOE loot. Some raids to have a "Boss Run" option in Studio Companion though. That will reduce the amount of trash that gets killed by a lot.

 

I just submitted an update for this profile pack which is now awaiting approval. Once this update and the accompanying Studio Companion update are approved, the Studio Planner will work and you can chain run profiles all you want.

Bonus: Trial of the Crusader will also be part of the bundle with the next update!
